Excellent Photographer, Highly Recommend

We are extremely satisfied with Photographic Lounge for the service they provided on our wedding day. George was very professional, and put us at ease throughout both the day and in the lead up. George understood our needs, nothing was too much for him. When looking through our photos with family, everyone commented how they didn't even notice him taking the photos and how they loved the natural shots.

If you are getting married at Crondon Park, we couldn't recommend him more. His knowledge of the venue is second to none and he helped out enormously.

Amazing photos and service!

We booked The Photographic Lounge after seeing him at another family wedding and loving their photos. He was really helpful at our initial meeting, discussing the packages and options, so we could decide what we wanted.
On the day George kept us totally at ease and relaxed, which was great as neither of us are that comfortable in front of the camera! He made it fun and he had the perfect balance of getting the good shots but also letting us return to our guests during each part of the day and enjoy ourselves. We absolutely love our photos from our special day, we cannot wait to order prints to have as a memory.

Friendly, Professional & knew what he was doing!

We used The Photographic Lounge for our wedding in September and they were great.
They knew the best way to get good shots and made the whole day run smoothly.

I would highly recommend them for your wedding!

Stacey wedding

George was completely professional and made us feel so at ease behind the camera considering me and my partner don’t really do photos hahaha! He was fantastic with all of our guests and everyone including us spoke highly of him, he was fantastic with capturing pictures of our special day with our little girl, we will definitely be using again!!

Thank you George for everything the photos are fabulous and we have a hard choice deciding what ones we want on our wall hahaha

Perfection

George made us both feel so at ease the whole time he was with us. No photos were ever forced and every photo came out so naturally beautiful! Communication is fantastic and very well priced for the package deals they offer at The Photographic Lounge. Highly recommend!

Best Experience

We had such a good experience and are so grateful for our best memories being captured by George. All the communication before the event was great, and all the arrangements were clearly organised. Our photographer was very flexible and very accommodating and the photos came out great, super quality and very professional. Thank you so much, we would recommend the Photographic Lounge to everyone!

Simply incredible…

Simply incredible… George makes the most photographer. We used him for our wedding in July 2022. By the end of the day George just felt like a guest. He made us feel so relaxed and comfortable and most importantly to us we didn’t feel like we spent the day taking photo and got to spend time with our guests. We got our previews a couple of days later and the final edits within weeks. Thank you so much Photographic Lounge for capturing our wedding and story so perfectly. You’re amazing. Love the Palmers xxx

Amazing experience

We were so greatful for The Photographic Lounge. George was so amazing on the day of the wedding from helping me and my sister with the back of my dress, to helping the boys with their pocket squares etc , and getting everyone organised when needed , to taking amazing photos which I can’t wait to get on the usb and sort a album out with them 😊 to then me asking if he could somehow add mum in to a photo to make it feel like she was there, and this was the result honestly love it. 100% recommend him he is amazing 😊

Just some of the beautiful photos he took and the one he made for me to have my mum in the photo😊 honestly thank you so much

We can not thank George enough!

We can not thank George enough! He was absolutely incredible through the whole day! From the moment he arrived he made me feel so at ease nothing was too much for him (even running around with the children and playing with our dog). George helped with all the finer details before we left for the church. If it wasn’t for George I think I definitely would of been more of a mess 🤦🏻‍♀️. The day run so smoothly. I’d recommend photographic lounge 1000%. Thank you again, from the new Mr & Mrs Nash 👰‍♀️🤵‍♂️

Photographs and video are just brilliant!

We got married in September at Crondon Park and used Photographic Lounge for photography and videography for the whole day. They were all so attentive and their experience certainly shows.

George was on it from the very beginning of the day with me (Bride) and took some amazing photos throughout the day, at the church and reception all the way into the evening.

Colin and Bridget, who were the videographers, have captured the whole day amazingly and after watching the video back, it looks like we are watching a movie!

We highly highly recommend using their services for any occasion, not just a wedding. They are not just there for work, they get so involved and very friendly.

Thank you to George, Colin and Bridget!

George was great start to finish!

George photographed our wedding in June 2023 and not only did he meet them, but he massively exceeded any expectations we had.

Before the big day, George was in contact with us regularly to ensure that everything we wanted was planned well in advance.

On the day George was simply incredible. He put us at ease from start to finish and was able to catch a perfect blend of organised shots as well as unstructured "in the moment" photos.

A number of our guests commented on George's skill of being able to capture important moments whilst not being overly noticed throughout the whole day - the skill of a great photographer.

We would have absolutely zero hesitancy in recommending George for any event our friends are hosting. 10/10. Would be more than 5* if we could give them.

Thank you for everything, George.

Amazing... look no further

Well, what we can say! From the first moment we walked into Photographic Lounge we knew we would go with them. George was nothing less than fantastic before, on the day, & after the wedding. George is a great communicator and is very professional, with the right amount of banter! You will not be disappointed with your photos, the quality of the photos are amazing and within our package we choose, it included several prints, and a canvas which again are both beautiful quality. Without a shadow of doubt, we would highly recommend to everyone. If we ever need photos in the future we wouldn't think twice about coming back to you guys. Thank you!
